Electrolux ECM 2247 Operation

Remove all packaging and securing tapes. Wash inside the

appliance with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda

(5ml to 0.5 litre of water). Do not use soap or detergent as

the smell may linger. Dry thoroughly.

Insert the plug into the wall socket. When the appliance is

connected to the power supply the green indicator light will

illuminate.

The green light remains illuminated to indicate that the

internal temperature of the appliance is correct for safe

storage of frozen food. If the temperature is too high in the

appliance the light will go out. The light may go out for the

following reasons:

There is a power failure

The lid has been recently opened

A large quantity of food has been added to the appliance

There is a fault

The temperature within the freezer is controlled by the

thermostat situated on the lower front of the cabinet. To

operate the freezer, proceed as follows:

When you first start the freezer we suggest that you turn the

thermostat to a medium setting by using a coin that fits the

groove. The correct setting can be found by measuring the

temperature of the top middle package in the freezer. This

should not have a temperature warmer than -18°C.

Min = Lowest setting, minimum cold

Max = Highest setting, maximum cold

Allow the freezer to run for several hours before placing

food inside.

Do not fill the freezer to more than 5mm below the top

edge.

The lid is fitted with a tightly closing sealing strip to prevent

moisture entering the freezer, which could increase the

amount of frost formed.

When the lid is opened the air inside the freezer becomes

slightly warmer and expands. When the lid is closed again

the air is cooled immediately. This may lead to the creation

of a vacuum which makes it hard to open the lid again

immediately. This is quite normal.

Wait for a few minutes until the vacuum has equalised and

then open gently. Never use excessive force on the handle.
